HONEST TO BLOG

My good friend Rachel Martinez tagged me in the Honest Blogger Tag. Here are the rules. List ten Honest things about myself and tag 10 other bloggers who I think are honest in their blogging.

So, Here are 10 Completely Honest facts about Tiffany:
"Honest to Blog" - Juno.

1. I love being a teacher. Yes there are days when I complain about everything, and ask Will "How much longer do I need to work full time?" But I really do love my job. I love seeing my students faces light up when they understand a concept, I love being able to help them through their little 6th grade problems, and most of all I love being a "mother" to all of my students.

2. I bought a cabbage patch kid for myself on my 25th birthday. I had mine thrown out by my mom on accident when I was 10. I never got a new one, and held a grudge... so I bought one for myself.

3. I hate wearing my hair completely down. I always wear my hair up in a ponytail or half up. I just have never liked having my hair feel like it is in my face. I also don't like how long it takes me to do my hair when it is down.

4. I have a "not so secret crush" on Will Smith, John Travolta, Harrison Ford, Richard Gere, Kevin Costner, Michael Douglas, Patrick Swayze, and Tom Cruise. Now these are some really fine looking actors!!

5. I sleep with a stuffed animal. No details needed. Will got me "rhino" from BOLT last Christmas. Before that I slept with a Care Bear.

6. I like going to Costco just for the samples, even if I don't have to buy anything.

7. I am a Jersey Girl through and through. I can get pretty sarcastic. I can drive a circle with style, I know how properly navigate the Turnpike, I know who "The Boss" is and have all his CD's, I have had real pizza and pretzels, I love custard not soft serve, and I know how to get the best spot on the Jersey Shore!

8. I love to people watch. I could sit and watch people for hours. My favorite part of going to the mall, a BYU football game, Costco, the bookstore, or anywhere else with a lot of people is just watching all of the different walks of life. It is amazing. People fascinate me.

9. I get up at 2am every night to pee.

10. I pray that I can be the mother of all boys. I want to be the soccer mom to the soccer boys. (Not that I wouldn't be happy with a girl, I would take any child with open arms)

Rachel thank you for having me do this. It was good for me to take a break from school work!

I would like to tag the following people:
Kristen Wi, Rosemary, Emily Raymond, Bre, Tanei, Angela Nearing, Carolyn, Nan, Brittney Allred, and Stooph. Come on girls show some real honesty!

School isn't that bad with fruit snacks

Get Well Mrs. Strong

My class this year is adorable. Enough Said.

I have been sick with the flu...yes the FLU...for a week now. I have been in the ER twice, missed my best friends wedding on Wednesday, have thrown up every day pretty much on the hour since Tuesday night, have had a fever, been to tired to function property, have cried for no reason, had to make sub plans everyday for a week, and have not had real food in a very long time, and to top it all off have not been to the gym. This flu has to go away!

But one thing will never change...
I have the best husband in the world. He had the flu too, he got it first, which has made the whole week even more fun (ha ha) because we were pretty miserable together. But through it all, he still brought me Gatorade when I asked, held my hair back when I threw up, cleaned the bathroom, still told me he loved me often, still held me at night when I couldn't sleep, and even let me watch the Little Mermaid twice! He is the best! I love you William.

But sweetheart lets never get sick at the same time EVER again!

Teachers

After being interviewed by the school administration, the prospective teacher said:
'Let me see if I've got this right.
'You want me to go into that room with all those kids, correct their disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse, monitor their dress habits, censor their T-shirt messages, and instill in them a love for learning.
'You want me to check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs and sexually transmitted diseases, and raise their sense of self esteem and personal pride.
'You want me to teach them patriotism and good citizenship, sportsmanship and fair play, and how to register to vote, balance a checkbook, and apply for a job.
'You want me to check their heads for lice, recognize signs of antisocial behavior, and make sure that they all pass the final exams.
'You also want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of their handicaps, and communicate regularly with their parents in English, Spanish or any other language, by letter, telephone, newsletter, and report card.
'You want me to do all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard, a bulletin board, a few books, a big smile, and a starting salary that qualifies me for food stamps.
'You want me to do all this and then you tell me. . . I CAN'T PRAY?

Just a nice day to have an extra long recess!
